the hog runs. UPDATED WITH PICS FINALLY
well, finished modding my harness and installing everything and going over it twice.
the built b16a fired right up tonight. took it for a short n/a ride around the block with petey and it is ***** slow. 8.5:1 b16a in a fatass gsr makes for a very slow ride.
got back and checked everything out, car was running nice, no smoke, running cool with the filled block and what do you know, drip,. drip, drip,
------ exhaust cam seal was pissing. oh well.
looks like thursday me and mahcivic will be doing the cam seals over.
other than that im very pleased., no piston slap, no wierd anything, after the new cam seals shell be ready for some hard boost.
pics of the car up soon.

Re: the hog runs.
make sure you got the intake cam seals on the intake side, and the exhaust on the exhaust side.
before decided to say ---- these so called professionals, I took my head to a machine shop to get it port and polish and get the valve seals replaced.. 60 months later. my ---- is smoking out the valve cover. I was like ----.
when I decided to rebuild my motor myself and upgrade the valve springs, I noticed the exhaust seals were on the intake side, I was pissed, and thats when I decide that I am done with shops and socalled professionals.
so check that ----. and good luck.
